About BOTOX
To help you age gracefully and to avoid facial wrinkles and lines from occurring on the top portion of the face, Setty Plastics & Aesthetics is pleased to offer BOTOX injections. This injectable treatment offers outstanding results and is very common among both women and men. BOTOX can make a significant improvement to dynamic lines, which are made from expressive movement with the contracting muscles on the forehead and around the eyes. These facial lines go away when the face is relaxed, but dynamic folds can still remain. This muscle relaxer is a clean and purified strain of type A botulinum toxin that temporarily freezes the movements of the facial muscle. To soften these static wrinkles, BOTOX is carefully injected to smooth the skin right in our offices in McKinney, and Dallas, TX. Treatments are commonly administered by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Naveen Setty between the eyebrows, around the eyes (Crow's feet), and across the forehead.
Ideal Candidates
BOTOX injections are great for softening visible dynamic lines and wrinkles on the upper face without surgery. Proactively, BOTOX can also be used as an anti-aging treatment even there are no signs of aging — keep in mind how often you find yourself making facial expressions. It's a terrific noninvasive treatment if you are frustrated by forehead wrinkles or parallel lines between the brows. It is also a solution for lines around the eyes. If you experience more severe and deeper lines, a filler product may be more suitable. In addition, if you are over the age of 50 with sagging skin and widespread wrinkles, you may be considered for a facelift surgery. This delivers a more impactful result and it is longer lasting. Setty Plastics & Aesthetics offers eyelid surgeries, facelifts, and brow lifts as effective options.

Procedure Technique
BOTOX treatments are completed as an in-office procedure conveniently at Setty Plastics & Aesthetics. If it is your first time to visit our office to get BOTOX, we usually perform the treatment on the same day as your initial consultation with Dr. Setty. You will be asked to make a number of expressions with your upper face, like frowning, squinting, smiling, etc., to help us see where the injections need to be placed. Your face will be prepared and BOTOX will be applied with a fine needle, followed with gentle compressions to help prevent bruising and discomfort. You can ask for an ice pack or numbing cream to help make the procedure more comfortable, but it usually is unnecessary. BOTOX treatments typically take around 10 – 15 minutes, then you may resume your usual routine.
What to Expect
Following the injections, you may get back to your normal routine, although strenuous activity should be skipped for a minimum of one day. You will be advised to sleep with your head elevated for at least one night and to avoid touching your face, which can accidentally spread the BOTOX to other areas. The injected sections of your face can appear red, swollen, or bruised for 2 – 3 days, although you should not develop any serious or lasting side effects from injectable treatments. In many cases, it generally takes around one week before the final results of BOTOX can be seen. The medication usually last 3 – 4 months. You can talk to your BOTOX injector about when to make your next appointment at Setty Plastics & Aesthetics to extend your results.
